Tips filmed the first section of a eleven part series! Get comfortable with your jazz and then the hat tricking, or the other way around! Regardless of how you go about it, you’re already on your way to becoming one of the newest members of the Hat Club.

What does that mean?

That means, if you learn one of the routines, perform it on video, and send it to Tips or Tops, you’ll get your very own Hat Tricking name AND potentially an opportunity to perform with the gang! If that’s not your thing, don’t worry about, but it still going to be worth the time and effort.

Chappy!
